    Marxists, Feminists and Leftists operate on the basis of "liberating tolerance" - i.e. their ideas should be tolerated, and any opposition should be suppressed.

    IIRC "Reconstructionists" are people who want to completely apply the Bible to real life.

    Yeah I know that but how do they get apply biblical economics? If there is such a thing.

I am saying that given the bizarre, racist views of its founder and its support for Ron Paul who consorts with Neo-Nazis, people should carefully consider this outfit before showing support.
    There is no link to North saying that anyone should be stoned for anything. The writer of the article says so but he does not offer any evidence either. What nonsense.

    I never met a libertarian that ever was worried about what homosexuals did as long as it did not affect them. Why should they. Libertarians want to mind their own business.

    Then you say Paul is a Nazi. What are you smoking.

    I didn't say he was a Nazi. I said he consorted with neo-nazis. He doesn't take much care as to who he hangs around with and he has been responsible for the publishing of some dodgy pamphlets as the OP states. North is a member of the Christian Reconstructionists who advocate the stoning to death of homosexuals amongst other groups.
